"Okay, no problem. To be honest, I've been very curious about you all these years. I really underestimated you for being able to pretend so well."
"But to be honest, I admire you too, you're really capable," Qin Yecai said to Jianjun and the others with a smile.
"Likewise. Let's go. Just say what's on your mind."
"Mom, Dad, come back!" Before Qiuqiu and Fubao could finish calling out, they saw Qin Yecai.
"Fu Bao, Qiu Qiu, come here for a moment," Tingting called the two children aside.
"Go to your grandparents' house in a bit. If your dad and I don't find you and bring you back, don't come back, okay?"
"Mom, what are you doing? It sounds like we're saying goodbye. Qiuqiu and I don't want to go."
“This Qin Yecai is no ordinary person. You don’t know what happened back then, and we’re not entirely sure either. If we don’t come to pick you up, don’t come back.”
"Also, if we're gone in the end, write to your brothers and tell them not to come back. You should leave too."
“Mother, Mother,” Fu Bao and Qiu Qiu cried out.
"Alright, you're all grown up now. No matter what, take care of yourself and go."
Fu Bao and Qiu Qiu looked at their parents and reluctantly ran towards their grandmother's house.
Tingting did this because she was worried; Qin Yecai was strong, and she didn't know her exact condition.
In uncertain circumstances, they both had to think about their two children.
No matter how much Qin Yecai tried to please them, she didn't dare to openly approach Qiuqiu and Fubao.
Now that they've become parents, Tingting and Jianjun's biggest worry is their children.
If things go well, great; if they don't, there's no way to avoid these issues.
This situation is a challenge that this family must overcome. Since they have enjoyed the convenience brought by the space, they must also bear the consequences.
Watching the children walk away, Tingting turned and went back into the house. The real confrontation with Qin Yecai was about to begin.
"Jianjun, Tingting, you're being so cautious. Have you made arrangements for the children?"
Tingting and Jianjun ignored her and waited silently for her to speak.
Feeling bored, Qin Yecai also became serious and prepared to get down to business.
"Alright, enough with the chit-chat, when did you guys transmigrate here?"
"Qin Yecai, when we arrived has nothing to do with you. Think about the arrangements for later," Zhang Tingting said, looking at him.
“Zhang Tingting, Guo Jianjun, you also have families and children. I have no other requests, I just want to protect my family.”
"To put it bluntly, Qin Yecai, protecting our families is our common goal."
"And do you know who Joseon is?"
“Zhang Tingting, you don’t need to test me. I’m telling you, Li Chao is the same person who investigated Zhao Kelan back then. I know all of that.”
"I want to ask you about Lin Chunhua. Did you arrange for her to come to me? And does Li Chao also know about my affairs?"
"Qin Yecai, you're overthinking it. Lin Chunhua has nothing to do with us. We only realized something was wrong when we discovered that Li Chao was paying attention to us."
"We both know our situation very well, but have you ever thought about why he only investigated you and me?"
Zhang Tingting also concealed a lot of information, some of which was true and some was false, but Li Chao has been investigating what happened back then, and it is true.
If they investigate too much, things might gradually become more complicated than they thought. What Jianjun and his team are more worried about is that this incident might uncover their secrets.
By then, it will be beyond their ability to solve.
This secret is dangerous for both Qin Yecai and her family.
"Qin Yecai, we are not untrustworthy people. To be honest, you don't know me, and we don't know you, but we can cooperate."
"Cooperation is the best way out, isn't it? Think about it carefully. Of course, we won't rush you."
"No matter what conflicts we have, we are the same kind of people, but the Joseon Dynasty is not."
"We helped Zhao Kelan back then, but we never expected her to be so disappointing."
“Zhang Tingting, what you’ve said makes some sense now. The current situation is so similar to what happened back then.”
"Back then, I never intended to have anything to do with Zhao Kelan, but the strange thing is that she went a bit too far back then."
"So I had no choice at the time, but today I know that you two, Zhang Tingting and her husband, are smart people, and of course I don't want to have any unpleasantness with you."
"And now we need to figure out exactly what we should do and where our backup plan is."
